GDINA: The Generalized DINA Model Framework

A set of psychometric tools for cognitive diagnosis modeling based on the generalized deterministic inputs, noisy and gate (G-DINA) model by de la Torre (2011) <doi:10.1007/s11336-011-9207-7> and its extensions, including the sequential G-DINA model by Ma and de la Torre (2016) <doi:10.1111/bmsp.12070> for polytomous responses, and the polytomous G-DINA model by Chen and de la Torre <doi:10.1177/0146621613479818> for polytomous attributes. Joint attribute distribution can be independent, saturated, higher-order, loglinear smoothed or structured. Q-matrix validation, item and model fit statistics, model comparison at test and item level and differential item functioning can also be conducted. A graphical user interface is also provided.
